3.8. OTHER DANGERS
FIORENTINI S.r.l. analyzes – starting from the design of the machine - all the dangers that can occur while
the machine is operating in order to prevent or at least lower the operator’s accidents. Thanks to a series of
signals on the machine the operator can avoid many risks that can occur.
CRUSHING
This kind of danger can occur:
•
During the side brushes regulation;
•
during the batteries recharge because of the fall of the recovery tank.
Whilst regulating the side brushes, the ignition key must be kept away from the dashboard in order
to avoid the casual starting of the machine.
Whilst the batteries recharge, the operator must pay attention that any parts of his/her body enter the
batteries room.
Special labels sticked on the carters of the brushes or on the recovery tank prevent
dangers to the operator (see § 3.7.).
SQUASHING AND SHEARING
This kind of danger can occur:
•
while the operator is regulating the steering wheel by means of the pedal.
The operator must only use his/her legs during the regulation of the steering column.
Squashing and shearing danger is highlighted by special labels sticked on the case of the steering
column (see § 3.7.).
TURNOVER
This kind of ranger can occur:
•
during the normal operating of the machine when you exceed sloping limits as specified in
the manual and you use the machine to clean disconnected surfaces or with holes and high
depressions (photo 3.2)
Do not use the machine to wash sloping surfaces higher than 10% or surfaces with
holes or depressions which might compromise the stability of the machine.
FIORENTINI is not responsible for accidents occurred to people or things provoked by a
wrong use of the machine, i.e. using the machine on surfaces which can compromise its
stability.
The purchaser must stick proper labels on the machine to show the operator the right use of
the scrubber.
